In addition to funding some of this training, Microsoft continues to fund the development of the Partners in Learning courseware and capacity building for trainers which enables other organizations, corporate social investment initiatives and departments of education to offer Partners in Learning training to more schools than Microsoft could fund itself. From July 2008 until April 2011, 2 133 teachers in Gauteng have benefitted from Microsoft Partners in Learning training using the courseware that Microsoft have developed as well as trainers that Microsoft has trained to be able to run the courses. Microsoft have covered in full the costs for training 686 of these teachers – with the balance of the teachers being trained through projects funded by other initiatives or the Gauteng Department of Education.

In this report training interventions that took place between January 2010 and April 2011 are documented, as sponsored by the Gauteng Department of Education; corporate sponsors and Microsoft itself. 1 Partners in Learning training sponsored by the Gauteng Department of Education 1.1 Sci-Bono ICT Skills for Teachers Training in Under-Performing Schools In 2011 Sci-Bono was commissioned by the Gauteng Department of Education to conduct ICT Skills for Teachers training in various under-performing schools in Gauteng. To assist with this process, Microsoft commissioned SchoolNet to provide master training for additional facilitators to be able to offer this course. Microsoft also commissioned SchoolNet SA to provide certificates for participants upon completion of their training and to monitor the training reports. During the first quarter of 2011, 1 100 teachers from over 200 Gauteng schools received training through this initiative as tabulated below: Trained Date District Institution/School Venue 14 – 19 Jan PIL Trainers 13 Old Class Room 24 – 27 Jan JS Raphela Secondary 21 Sci-Bono Lab PIL Trainers 10 Old Class Room 31 - 3 Feb GW John Martin CS, Tsholetsega Primary, Amogelang Secondary 21 John Martin CS 7 – 10 Feb GW Atlholang, Boipelo, Setlolamathe Primary 21 Mandisa Schekica High GE Redumeletswe, Job Maseko, Sakhelwe, Nkabinde, Sechaba 14 Kenneth Masekela and Theo Twala Primary JC Isipho, Atamelang, Elsie Ngidi, Molatladi 15 JHB Central ICT Lab JN Riverlea Primary, Noordgesig Primary, GR Harris Primary, 13 Sci-Bono ICT Lab Bree Primary, TC Esterhuysen Primary SW Tshirella Primary 19 Sedibeng West District TW Maropeng, Lebogang, Lesego, Bodubelo Lesolang, Rakale 18 Suiderberg Skool Thabong Modiselle, Bachana Mokoena GE Duduza, Roseview, Dan Radebe, Emzimkhulu and Sibonisiwe 21 Kenneth Masekela Primary JE Ivory Park, Kanana, Ebony Park Primary 18 Ebony Park Primary JS Phopedi, Ahanang, Mfundo-Mtoti 7 JS District Teacher Centre JN Westbury,Everest Primary, Dowlinglaan, Laerskool 24 Sci-Bono ICT Lab Claremont, Newclare Primary, Laerskool Esperanza SW Ikokobetseng Primary 15 Sedibeng West District TW Tokyo Sexwale, Tim Modise, Morula View, Sinqobile, 24 Suiderberg Skool Tipfuxeni, Phuthanang 15 – 18 Feb TS Balebogeng, Pfunzo Ndi, Tshendza, Bula Dikgoro,Ramahlale, 24 Prosperitus Secondary Boikgantsho, Bajabulile, Meetse a Bophelo, Mahlasedi Masana, Ezazi, Legora, Jan Kotlolo, Emasangweni TS Makgatho, Nwa Mhinga, Motsweding, Mabafeng, 24 Arcadia Primary School Bathokwa, Phuthaditshaba, Mahlahle, Seaparankwe, Vukuzenzele, Nelmapius, Jan Kotlolo Esikhisini, Masizani, Mahlahle SchoolNet SA – Microsoft Training conducted in Gauteng – January 2010 – April 2011 Page 3 12 & 19 Feb ES Hleziphi and Umkhathizwe 23 Mpilisweni Secondary School 21 – 24 Feb EN Daveyton Intermediate, Bhekimfindo, Kuzimisela, Sibonelo, 23 Waltville Adult Centre Sozizwe GE Moshoeshoe, Gugulesizwe, Madingoane & Ntsikana Primary 28 H/S Hugenote JC Lakeview 16 JHB Central ICT Lab JE Bonwelong Primary,Ebomini
